This natural open-ended Wooden Water Ways set is perfect for children to investigate and experiment with water outdoors. Children can play with each other as they problem solve together. The timber wooden channels are made from sustainably approved pine wood and are coated with a water proof oil.
Children can construct their own wooden watercourses and then watch the water cascade down these rustic wooden channels as they pour the water down a handcrafted wooden funnel.
The set includes three different types of crafted patterns that changes the way the water flows. This includes a wooden funnel and three chunky wooden blocks to adjust heights and angles.
Placing a garden bed at the bottom of a constructed watercourse or catching water with a bucket is a great way to educate children about water conservation. When children are finished with the water for the day the resource can also be used with marbles.

Due to being a natural resource, weather conditions and location of timber resources will cause timber to undergo different changes. This is typical of all timber products. The humidity, rain and the amount of direct sunlight product is exposed to will all change the rate in which timber deteriorates.
We recommend that timber resources are sanded and re-oiled throughout the year as required. Please follow the manufacturers directions for oiling.
After wet use, we recommend drying outside which will prevent mould and wood rot.
